Hobby Leaps into Career for Wyandotte Resident

Learn more about this Wyandotte-based business in this week's Small Business Spotlight.

Leap Into Photos by Ronnie Rose was founded in February 2011 in Wyandotte. 

Rose recently submitted information about the business to Patch. If you have a business and want to participate in Patch's Small Business Shout Out you can fill out the form here.

Tell us how your business got started: 

Leap Into Photos began with just a mom (me) and a digital camera who was fed up with paying those astronomical costs of department store and high-end photography for my children's portraits. I started taking classes and learned how to use my own camera just to save a buck. Then my family and friends started asking me to do portraits for them. I now do weddings, senior portraits, commercial photography and family photography. I have been published several times for portrait and landscape photography. This hobby has now become a career that brings nothing but a smile to my face. It brings me such joy to see how happy my customers are with my finished product. It is truly my personal form of therapy.

Tell us why you choose your location:

I was born and raised in the Dotte. I love my community and want nothing more than to help it thrive.

What products/services do you offer?

Family portraits, children and newborn portraits, senior portraits, maternity, weddings, photo booth fun, landscape art, and commercial photography.

What do you want your business to be best known for? 

My motto is one I found in a fortune cookie. "Don't lose the magic of the moment while trying to capture it on film." Let me capture those magical moments for you. I strive to provide exceptional quality at prices real families can afford. Every price I have is negotiable. I also am a huge fan of the barter system. If you can provide assistance with something I need and I have a service you need, let's negotiate.

What is your most popular product/service? 

Right now my most popular product is my senior portrait special. Three hours of photography, three locations, three wardrobe changes for $399. It includes all proofs professionally edited, 100 wallets with name, 1 11x14, 2 8x10, 4 5x7 and a cd slide show of all proofs to play at your graduation party. This also includes a print release for you to do any additional printing on your own at no extra charge. Print sizes are suggestions; I happily change the sizes to meet your needs.
